UPDATE March 22, 2025: The snow is melting, the robins have arrived in Eastern Ontario and the days are growing longer.

That means it is time to start thinking about spring markets and special events — including the return of outdoor markets and craft shows! Mom’s is filling out our schedule of events, and will be updating this list over the coming weeks, so please check back for more dates coming soon!
